Our Process

Crafted Daily, Layered Flavors

From farm-direct tea leaves to house-cooked tapioca and hand-laminated pastries, every element at Forma Tea & Bakery reflects our unwavering commitment to quality and artisanal methods.

Farm-Direct

Single-Origin Tea Leaves

We partner directly with small farm cooperatives in Taiwan and Japan, ensuring every tea leaf is ethically sourced and of the highest quality. Our relationships with these growers allow us to bring you truly exceptional, nuanced flavors.

Cook Fresh Tapioca

Mash Real Taro

Layered Flavors

Our farm-direct teas are carefully chosen for their unique profiles, then slow-steeped to extract their full, delicate essence.

House-cooked tapioca pearls are simmered in brown sugar syrup every two hours, ensuring a perfectly chewy texture and natural sweetness.

For our signature taro drinks, we mash fresh taro daily, creating a creamy, authentic base without artificial powders.

Each drink is meticulously crafted with organic milk and natural ingredients, building a harmonious balance of taste and texture.

Daily Bake

Hand-Laminated Pastries

Our pastries are a fusion of classic French techniques and Asian-inspired flavors. Each croissant is hand-folded 81 layers deep with premium butter, then baked to a golden, flaky perfection. Experience black sesame, matcha, and ube in every bite.
